“A monstrous nonsense, a serious damage to the image of the girl and also of the son regardless of the decision that the judge will make.” So to the beraking latest news Antonio Di Pietro, former magistrate of the Mani Pulite pool and former Minister of Public Works, commented on the video of Beppe Grillo in defense of his son accused of rape. «I have great affection for Beppe Grillo but I cannot agree with his choice to do that video intervention. – added Di Pietro -. To underline the lack of respect towards the girl, who will or will not be a victim, but certainly must be respected as a woman, and the lack of respect towards the child ». «The trial had to take place within the court, where they assert their reasons. Now many prejudices have been created, many, too many controversies that will end up dirtying the final outcome that the judges will decide, whatever it is. I am embittered, I am a friend of Beppe and I love him but the outbursts, this kind of outbursts – Di Pietro said again – are made in front of the mirror and not in front of the camera of a mobile phone ».
Di Pietro then wanted to highlight that «there is another very embarrassing aspect in my opinion: the cowardly silence of the leadership of the 5 Star Movement, they escape the microphones and do not want to speak. And the blow given to the circle and the barrel by the Christian Democrat Antonio Conte ».
